Greed

The king was not happy; he wanted to be happy and was searching for happiness. He went to a mountain. On the mountain there lived a dervish. the dervish had two hobbies. At dawn, he sat facing the east and watched the sun slowly rise from the horizon, and then went out into the forest. to spend the whole day in the forest.

When he was hungry, he plucked fruits from the trees and ate them. When he felt thirsty, he drank water from streams and waterfalls. The dervish had a hut to live in. He used to stay in the hut at night. There were two blankets and open sky and a cool earth for summer, and the need for clothing was supplied by pilgrims. He reached the dervish, the dervish heard, laughed, put on the wooden shoes and said to the king, "O king, I will answer this in your court."

The king put the dervish on a horse and came to the capital. The dervish requested, "Now call someone in need." The king took out a letter from the tray of petitions. "The needy was brought to the court," the dervish whispered in the king's ear. Said to needy that You go, 'run into my kingdom', you will make s big a circle on the earth as the sun sets, that earth will be yours. The king gave the order to the needy. After the order was issued, the king, the dervish and the courtiers sat on chairs in front of the palace.

The needy was made to stand at one point by drawing a line. The king shook his handkerchief and the needy began to run. The needy divided the time into two parts at the beginning of the race. Return journey from Zahr (noon) to Maghrib (Sun Set). The needy person thought that he would grab a huge piece of land. He thought that if I increase my speed, I will cover a hundred acres of land by Asr (noon) and if I run back at the same speed, I will reach the at (sunset).

Let me tell you one less force of human nature. Man is greedy and greed has two dozen flaws but the biggest flaw is related to the human mind. "Whenever we see something," our mind immediately estimates its width, thickness, weight, and value, and we make further decisions based on this calculation, but when we are tempted, our brain produces a strange chemical that destroys our ability to calculate and makes us make bad decisions.

You listen to the stories of people who lost their lifetime earnings to fraudsters, you immediately say after hearing the story, "You are an educated and sensible person." But he came to you, how can he give you a land worth five crores for two and a half crores, or how can a shop which is worth crores of rupees be found in the market for ten lakhs of rupees, and how can sugar be treated with sweets and such a good situation? Why would a girl come to Pakistan from America and marry a matric fail boy like you?" etc.

The victim of the fraud usually replies, "Brother, he was a magician. He clouded my intelligence." Fraud was not a magician. He does it and thus a good and sensible person becomes a uncle. 'I come back to the person who surrounds the earth.' Running till Asr (After Noon), when the sun began to return quickly, the man realized his mistake, he turned and ran back, but it was too late, he could not get back before sunset. .

He had two options at this point 'he would have given up' he would have stopped running and quietly gone back home or he would have tried hard to win' he went for the second option 'I give you another human mindset here. Let me tell you the mistake. Hard work always comes third in success. First number is planning and second number is talent. Your planning is wrong. No matter how hard you try, your chances of success are slim Second, if you don't have the ability, if you don't get regular training, if you don't prepare for the task, no matter how hard you work, you won't succeed. It was devoid of both.

However, he made the second wrong decision - he gave up trying to break away - increased his running speed - he was very tired but he was still running madly - he tried to reach in time. Speeding up until his lungs burst 'blood gushed from his mouth but he kept running anyway' he finally reached the king but after reaching the goal he gave a long hiccup 'fell to the ground' gasping. And surrendered his life to the life of Afrin. He had won the land but lost his life.

Dervish got up from his place and came near the man who fell on the ground. The person was living a better life than me 'I have nothing but one pair of clothes' wooden shoes 'two blankets and a bowl' 'I live on a mountain far from the city' I eat fruits and drink water from rivers but Why be happy? Because I do not covet while you mine Look at this person's assets in comparison: "This person will be a thousand degrees better than me." He fell down and died. Why? Because he couldn't control the greedy man inside him, he kept running after crazy desires, he would sometimes apply to someone and sometimes he would send a request to you. allowed to encircle the earth' it ran but its greed also ran with it' if it had been sensible 'if it had been content in the middle' it would have stopped 'it would have been satisfied with what it had achieved' If he had thanked and started enjoying life, this blessing would have been enough for him.

But it did not get off the horse of greed, it kept running until greed took its life.” Greed and happiness are two threads. They cannot stay together. If you want to be happy, you have to divorce greed. Happiness will automatically settle in your house. If I keep galloping away, your end will be like that person'' you will also become a lesson'' tears came to the king's eyes'' he said in a gloating tone.He said, "Sir! Monarchy is a swamp of greed. How can you save yourself from greed when you are a king?" Darvish laughed and said, "Increasing power is the greed of kings and the king who tries to get more and more power. There is no difference between him and the person lying on the ground. "Instead of accumulating powers, you start sharing powers. You will find happiness."
